I Am My Language — Cultural Celebration & Book Launch

Celebrate language, identity, and storytelling at a free, family-friendly book launch with local author and educator Ritu Anand. This special event is part of Suncoast Remake Learning Days and includes a live book reading, conversation with the author, and hands-on art and literacy activities for children. I Am My Language is a joyful exploration of heritage, identity, and the power of mother tongues. Inspired by true events, the story celebrates children and families who choose to read, write, and speak the language that shapes who they are. 🎁 Complimentary books will be available for the first 50 families. This event is open to all ages and welcomes multilingual families, educators, and anyone curious about how language connects us across generations. The book reading and activity instructions will be offered in both English and Spanish. Event partners: Playform Studios, UnidosNow, Literacy Council of Sarasota, Embracing Our Differences, and Suncoast Remake Learning Days.
